Changing the game for Jamaican schools

My School has been around for long enough to have gone through several rounds of developments and additions. It is now an intuitive and simple system and we are proud to say that it is completely user-driven.
It is now available as a fully functioning cloud based software – but still works off line! That means that all users can access it from anywhere.

The most recent development in MySchool’s history includes catapulting the company into the 21st century with an incredible face-lift of the entire platform as well as a host of new features and a whole new level of availability.

Take a look at our journey: 

First user - 2004
We started out with a request to help solve one task for one school's administration in Jamaica! Comsol Jamaica Ltd started up in Spanish Town with the founder, Gary Walker, as Mr Innovator and Developer-in-chief! The digital grade book, which was one of the first features we developed, was a winner and saves the schools time and money. Even in its infant form it did the trick - but there was more to come...
2007 - user-driven all the way!
You know it is like when you start using something that really works? All of a sudden you wonder...can it do this? Can it do that? Could we maybe change this? How about adding this.....

These early years brought us close to the users - and we sat down and structured a fully fledged school management software. It was still early days regarding general application of sofware like this in schools, so we developed and implemented the features they really needed.

2010 - new website
My School started out as a desktop installed software. But times changed and more and more people wanted a bit more flexibility. So part of the system is now accessible via a web-login.

We are still spearheading the use of systematic analysis of performance in schools in Jamaica. Competitors start to eye the Jamaican market but none of them are tailor-made to the intricacies of the Caribbean school system. In partnership with a UK based IT consultancy we continue to push the software and introduce more and more solutions that schools need.
2015 -2017 Market leader
COMSOL has at this point grown significantly since the early years where we pioneered a new mindset of 'Best Practice' for school managers. We now have a team in place in Jamaica that takes care of customer service, while also, along with our UK partners, remain focused on the performance and excellence of the software.

Other systems have by now made their entrance but they are all expensive and inflexible. Over 100 schools in Jamaica now use MySchool as foundation for all school activities.
2019 - Ready to grow
The world is moving fast and MySchool is moving with it. MySchool Jamaica is given a make over, several new features are added. Android and iPhone apps are now available and it is now completely cloud based.

We are now on a mission - all Jamaican schools must have this software. For some schools an annual subscription is too expensive so we change the game. The software is now free with only a monthly hosing cost to pay!
